Cloutier Fires the Turn

Pot-Limit Omaha

We caught the action in a three-handed pot with about 15,000 in the pot on a {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop. David Benyamine was fired to act in the small blind and led out for 12,000, which Eric Cloutier called from the big blind. Daniel Negreanu folded from the cutoff, and it was heads-up to the {7-Spades} turn.

Benyamine must not have liked the card as he checked to Cloutier, who took the opportunity to bet 21,000. Benyamine thought for about ten seconds and then released his hand.
